WE will be splitting the case's. Redo everthing inside. A to Z.
My freind who will weld it is very good at this sort of thing. I have seen his work on other things, and asures me that it will be just fine. HELL!!! he owns the bike. He bought it because I have a 2001 200 and he likes mine. So he figured, WHY NOT! I can fix this thing. Yaa... I know the two bikes are different, but it will be cool to find out just how much!! If he leaves it "close" to stock.
He knows about my RB mods, so I can't steer him away from those.
C C ....Stock piston?? How can you tell for sure. Hate to have that be a Wisco.
For the less than $500 he paid for it, he belives it is worth it. Besides, the PC pipe and silencer, new tires and other parts on it, he should get his $$ back if he can't fix it.
